>>4797606>I think the idea of "continuous enthusiastic/non-coerced consent" is a far better metric in terms of saying if you're not getting the following from a partner, then sex isn't on the tableYou have literally never talked to a woman or are one and have zero self-awareness.That's not how women talk, and the ones that due are exceedingly rare. They almost exclusively talk in hints, half-truths, metaphors, and euphamisms when in comes to sex. They literally think that the less obvious a flirtation is, the hotter it is. They DO NOT just say "I want you to have sex with me now". That's fucking laughable. You are a permavirgin and should stop giving opinions on sex and consent until you have had it.

Why do lions fuck each other's tranimal holes?
>>4799204what
animals can't be gay, gay is an identity invented in the 70s not an act or behavior, you can be a virgin and gay/queer
>>4799086>It means they're horny animals without any concept of sexuality besides "this feels good".Return, White Man.
>>4799066There is and NBCU making a documentary about it otherwise they wouldn't. If animals do it then that means it's natural in humans too. A lion is a symbol of masculinity? Well guess what, you will see them take in ass with pride and furocity of the true king of the jungle and so will you too soon.
I too would fuck a big lion in the ass ngl.

>>4799782Goldens can be both retarded and good dogs, because on top of being retarded, they are extremely placid and docile with almost no will to power. A retarded dog can also be highly obedient because obedience requires 0 brainpower, it's more about personality type. Just look at the brainpower on beagles - the huskies of the hounds.Mixing their low intelligence with a poodle's more "real animal" like temperament is a disaster.
>>4799786This one's a GP, and the shorter hair one is an akbash. The akbash is a predecessor to the modern lab, so they kinda look alike.
>>4799791I thought goldens were ranked pretty smart? They do always seem dumb but friendly to me, but I remember seeing pic related being the list just about everywhere.What you say makes total sense though. Poodles are super smart dogs but also I think more driven, hence why they like puzzles and brain exercises. Border collies are like that too, but with even more energy. My neighbor has one that is a great doggie but it takes his entire family to contain the dogs drive and mental stimulation.
my local animal shelter is completely full and I went over there to adopt and left empty handed because almost all of the dogs looked like a pitbull mixes to me. i imagine that's why they can't get rid of them.
A man in his twenties or thirties with 2 or more cats is a red flag
>>4799234none apparently just a 4chan shit pass, tate university degree and caring too much about (((politics))).
>>4794741 A man in his twenties or thirties using 4chan is a red flag, so you may as well splurge on cats.
Cats are pretty. Cats are nice. Take your chances. Roll the dice.
>past a certain age a man without family can be a bad thing
>>4799654Basically if you're a man and not married by 30 it's over. It will never happen. Women will avoid you because there must be a reason why no other woman would be with you. Just abandon all hope.
Has anyone gotten into micro-falconry? I'm always fascinated by bird of prey, but they are not legal to own in my state except for purpose of falconry/hunting. Some people have gotten around the legislation by just doing "micro-falconry" - e.g., owning small bird of prey like kestrel (which is much lower cost and maintenance), then going out to the field once a week or once every two weeks and have their kestrel just kill bunch of rats and pests. Sounds like it can be fun.
>>4798135A kestrel isn’t as noob friendly as a larger bird and costs just as much a larger bird too; food is the only thing you’d spend less on. I guess you’d be fine with a cheaper thinner glove instead of a gauntlet or even going barehanded, but most other equipment, housing, and maintenance supplies are going to be about the same and they still should be flown as often as possible. With the metabolism on a kessie, I don’t even know if you’d have a smaller volume of shit to clean up either. Their behavior is pretty fun though. So is watching em catch a fat grasshopper in midair.Most of the annoyance of training a kestrel is just that you don’t have as much leeway for keeping them at the right weight to cooperate with you, they’re really really easy to just overfeed. Small fractions of a gram are enough to A) go flying away forever because they certainly aren’t hungry enough to hunt and don’t want anything you’re offering, or B) flying away forever because they were so hungry they immediately gorged on their catch before you could trade a tidbit with them and now they’re back to being in the mood for option A before a larger predator decides to ambush them.
>>4798135What >>4798168 said.Falconry isnt something to dabble in. Your best bet for getting into it is to apprentice a professional, and they'd probably require you to have some previous experience and/or qualifications working with animals, specifically birds.
>>4798168>>4798176Thanks bros. I guess falconry ain't for me. I'll just try to volunteer at my local raptor rescue in the summer and see how it goes.
>>4798210This is the best thing to do. You can get all the enjoyment with no real responsibility because you just do what you are told. As the other anon said, Kestrels are very difficult to keep and larger raptors like Red-Tailed are the most common 'beginner' bird for a reason. In addition, in my state this loophole would not work because you have to have an apprenticeship with a master falconer to own any raptor regardless of size.
>>4799385I was inspired by this news piece about falconryhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKvkNxCv6jwI don't mind taking apprenticeship, seems like a cool hobby and good way to meet people. But my living conditions now (I live in apartment, 1st floor, with a small yard) do not allow for owning such large bird like redtail.

As very social creatures, prairie dogs will become depressed or sick if not given enough attention. If you don't have at least six hours per day to spend with your prairie dog, then plan on having a full colony of prairie dogs or none at all. With the right training, pet prairie dogs can be leash trained (using a special prairie dog harness) and even learn to come when they hear their name.
>>4799839Where do you even get some? They look like giant chipmunks/squirrels
>Prairie dogs may have a vocal communication system more complex than that of dolphins, whales and non-human primates.>These squeaks and yips make up the most elaborate animal vocalizations we humans have yet translated. Indeed, the prairie dogs’ communication system is so detailed and specific that some researchers are “comfortable calling it a language,” says Con Slobodchikoff, the animal behaviorist who introduced this concept after studying prairie dogs for decades.>A given call might contain information about a suspicious figure’s identity (“hawk!” “coyote!”), speed of approach, and size—or, if they happen to be a nosy researcher, their height and the color of their shirt. These messages are responded to with the appropriate behavior—craning a neck for a wheeling falcon, diving into a burrow for a close-by dog. By hanging cutout shapes above a prairie dog colony, UFO-style, Slobodchikoff and his colleagues learned that the rodents can even differentiate between circles and triangles (although not, for whatever reason, between circles and squares).

>>4799843Not sure about colony but the way I've seen as many as 5 kept is a big cage in the middle of a lively area with a high vintage point over the room.Or maybe in your bedroom. They are diurnal like us so they won't be waking you in the middle of the night.
Why is nobody actively domesticating these dudes?Seems like they'd make much better pets than retarded hamsters.

Sorry for the shitty picture but holy shit look at this bee I just saw.It had to have been like an inch and a half long I've never seen such a big bug before aside from the odd mantis
>>4799797I measured that mark in the wood and it was about an inch and a half give or take.I thought I took mire pictures but my shitty phone must not have actually taken them.
